HC Deb 30 November 1920 vol 135 c1097
46. Mr. PENNEFATHER

asked the Prime Minister if he is aware that Lieutenant A. Ames, who was murdered in Dublin on Sunday, 21st November, was born at Titusville, Pennsylvania, and educated at Stevens University, United States of America; and will he cause a message to be sent to America expressing regret that an American-born officer should have shared the fate of his British fellow officers at the hands of Sinn Fein assassins?

Mr. BONAR LAW (Leader of the House)

I am informed that the facts regarding Lieutenant Ames are as described, but I do not feel that any confirmation of the country's sympathy is required in the loss of this gallant officer.
